Home healthcare, also referred to as formal or skilled care, is the support and care services that healthcare professionals provide at the patient’s own home. These care services include respiratory therapy, home infusion therapy, rehabilitation services, telehealth, unskilled home care, and other services. The global home care and self care market is expected to grow at a CAGR of 8.4% between 2009 and 2014.

The most important healthcare trend witnessed recently is the focus shift of patients from hospitals to home healthcare. The move from treatment to proactive monitoring is also opening up new opportunities for the home healthcare market. Patients prefer home healthcare to hospitals mainly for the convenience and cost-effectiveness it offers. Third-party home healthcare is also witnessing huge demand due to better treatment quality ensured by trained medical professionals.
